"Alternate spectrum from 3585 - 3600."
Does this mean that we keep the 3600 and up for voice?
Is the FCC saying these digital guys need to just move down?
I have a lot of mixed emotions about the code exam being gone.

Subject: [AMRadio] FCC ADDRESSES ARRL PETITION FOR RECONSIDERATION,NO-CODE
PROPOSAL
Last part:
Finally, today's Order resolved a petition filed by the ARRL for partial
reconsideration of
an FCC Order released on October 10, 2006 (FCC 06-149). In this Order, the
FCC authorized
amateur stations to transmit voice communications on additional frequencies
in certain amateur
service bands, including the 75 meter (m) band, which is authorized only for
certain wideband
voice and image communications. The ARRL argued that the 75 m band should
not have been
expanded below 3635 kHz, in order to protect automatically controlled
digital stations operating
in the 3620-3635 kHz portion of the 80 m band. The FCC concluded that these
stations can be
protected by providing alternate spectrum in the 3585-3600 kHz frequency
segment.
Action by the Commission on December 15, 2006, by Report and Order and Order
on
Reconsideration. Chairman Martin and Commissioners Copps, Adelstein, Tate,
and McDowell.
